Hi,
I have been working on building manylinux [1] wheels for matplotlib.
My first-pass at a recipe for a matplotlib wheel is here:
https://github.com/matthew-brett/manylinux-builds/blob/master/build_matplotlibs.sh
The main work is deciding which external libraries to build - here's
that part of the recipe:
https://github.com/matthew-brett/manylinux-builds/blob/master/build_mpl_libs.sh
In short, I'm building libz, libbz2, libjpeg, libpng and freetype.
Is that the right list? Should I add more?
I have built wheels for testing at https://nipy.bic.berkeley.edu/manylinux:
# upgrade pip to latest for manylinux support
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -f https://nipy.bic.berkeley.edu/manylinux matplotlib
I would be very grateful for any feedback,
Thanks a lot,
Matthew
